Djeco Swip'sheep DJ05145 is a fun and engaging card game designed for young children. The goal of the game is to be the first player to collect a set of matching sheep cards. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to play:

Objective:

Collect as many matching pairs of sheep cards as possible and be the first player to complete a set of pairs.

Setup:

1. Shuffle the deck of cards and deal 5 cards to each player.

2. Place the remaining cards face down in the centre as a draw pile.

3. Players take turns trying to collect pairs of matching sheep cards.

Game Rules:

1. Player's Turn:

   • On a player's turn, they can either draw a card from the draw pile or ask another player for a specific card.

   • Draw a card: If a player chooses to draw, they take the top card from the draw pile and add it to their hand. They end their turn after drawing.

   • Ask for a card: If a player has one sheep card and wants to collect a pair, they can ask another player for a card that matches the sheep they have. For example, if you have a “white sheep” card, you can ask another player, “Do you have a white sheep?” If they have it, they must give it to you.

     • If the player has the requested card, the asking player can take it and continue their turn.

     • If the player does not have the requested card, the turn ends, and the asking player must draw a card from the draw pile.

2. Matching Pairs: 

   • When a player collects a matching pair of sheep cards (for example, two “white sheep” cards), they can place them face up in front of them to score the pair.

3. End of the Game:

   • The game ends when all pairs have been collected or when all the cards from the draw pile are gone.

   • The player with the most matching pairs at the end of the game wins.

Tips:

• Pay attention to what cards other players ask for, as it can give you clues about what they might need.

• Try to collect pairs of sheep as quickly as possible while preventing others from collecting their pairs.

Enjoy playing! It’s a simple, fun game that encourages memory skills and strategic thinking.
